I did find the gameplay loop simple, but it was very enjoyable regardless. My first run I only managed to get to medium signals, then the second run I got to the hard signals very quick and got this score. It never did trick me, though the audio cues were more tricky than any of the visual text or buttons lighting up. Funny messages too.
